Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 1072: Selfish (2)

"You already have other methods to deal with them. There's no need to dirty your hands on your own." Nan Hua passed a look at Nan Luo. "I'll send you the result of the investigation later."     

"Ok."     

Nan Luo sighed. For some reason, he felt that his twin sister was getting further and further away from him in terms of intelligence and capability. But at the same time, he was thinking of her words.     

Based on the background of Jun Family, he also knew that he indeed had a card that he could use.     

As long as he used it well… they would be destroyed sooner or later.     

"That will take a long time." Nan Luo sighed once more.     

"If you get involved personally, you're risking your career."     

Nan Luo's face darkened. If a commander was known to be attacking a commoner, he knew that his reputation would plummet. Not to mention, it could warrant an arrest since he was basically attacking Fei Yang Kingdom's citizen.     

If it was other kingdom's citizen in a city he just conquered, he could still attack them in the name of 'they're trying to run away or attack back.'     

He would only be investigated or reprimanded lightly.     

"Right. You're indeed smarter than me."     

Nan Hua was speechless.     

Was it really matter which one of them was smarter? Besides, the real reason why she could analyze it faster was because her soul was much older than Nan Luo. She was already used to this kind of situation.     

"They're just selfish and it's also their selfishness that cost other people's lives."     

"I know."     

If they helped his mother, Nan Luo knew that things might not turn this way. But he was also happy that he could stay with his grandfather and that things ended well. While the process was harsh back then, he knew that it was also what allowed them to grow now.     

Had things were different, they might not end up like this.     

While he didn't want it to be that harsh, it was impossible for them to change the past.     

"Let's go, we have to go tomorrow."     

"Yes."     

…     

The next day, the group of new recruits all gathered. Looking at these unruly people, Nan Luo thought of the days when he first entered the military back then. Those who came with him were like these people.     

They hadn't received training yet.     

"Follow the lead."         

Nan Luo and Feng Ao Kuai rode on horse at the very front while the others walked on foot. It might be biggest difference between them and the recruits.     

Nan Hua and Si Kang were following close to these two. Their priorities were to protect these two and the recruits came after them. There was no way they would care about these people so much.     

Time passed.     

They regrouped with Xiao Yan and the other commanders whom they had sent to the nearby villages. The number of the new recruits increased.     

"When the family record is complete, this military system would be better in the future." Feng Ao Kuai sighed when he saw the name list. For now, these lists were mostly still incomplete.     

After all, there were some people who might even pay the officials to hide their names before Feng Ao Kuai and Nan Luo arrived. If they paid enough, the big families could even reduce the number of the people who were supposed to be recruited from their family to the frontline.     

Nan Luo was speechless. "Are you going to propose some kind of plan to change it?"     

"I'm not an official."     

"But you're as good as one."     

Feng Ao Kuai pursed his lips and shook his head. He hadn't passed the Imperial Examination. There were even three examinations, from provincial, city, to Imperial Examination.     

He didn't attend any of them.     

It was not like he couldn't, but he was at the frontline for the past few years and hadn't had the time to review his study. If he wanted to truly become an official, he would have to pass those three examinations.     

It wouldn't be that easy.     

"There are other people who are in charge of this matter. Besides, the reform for many things had been started for some time." With Emperor Yang Zhou in complete power, he implemented many things that he had wanted to from the past.     

By now, the strength of Fei Yang Kingdom had been increasing slowly but steadily in many other aspects aside from military.     

Feng Ao Kuai only knew some things. He had no intention of getting involved deeply in those matters either.     

"Let's camp here for the night. We're still a long distance from the frontline."     

"Alright."     

Nan Hua was looking at a distance as she jumped down the horse. There were some people who had been paying attention to their group. Did some spies from other kingdoms knew that Fei Yang Kingdom wanted to increase their strength?     

If that was the case, should she deal with them and protect the new blood?     

'I'll retaliate if they truly attack, then.'     

While Nan Luo was leading everyone to build their camp, Feng Ao Kuai managed the soldiers. They sighed when they saw that most of the new recruits couldn't even build a tent perfectly.     

It seemed as if they all needed to be taught from the very beginning.     

Feng Ao Kuai could even imagine that those instructors wouldn't have an easy time teaching this group of new recruits.     

Night come.         

It was then Nan Luo noticed that Nan Hua had been standing guard at the side all this time. He was confused. "Nan, you don't have to stand guard.  It's time to rest."     

"Mhm."     

Nan Hua walked to Nan Luo's tent and sat beside the door. She was holding her sword and closed her eyes to sleep.     

Seeing that, Nan Luo was speechless.     

"Don't you want to sleep inside?"     

He didn't mind giving his bed to his twin sister if she wanted it. He could sleep on the ground instead of her.
